I have them now - only a month. So far, it has not been too bad..what really sux is having to brush/floss at work. You wear the retainers for 2 weeks then put the next set in - and yea after about 1 1/2 week they start feeling slimy. I soak mine daily for 20 min at night and brush them in the morning. I have heard some people that have a really hard time with them - maybe I have been lucky in that I have not had any pain or a cut up mouth. I never had braces so I cannot compare. What I do know is that you need to be totally comitted when you do this - you wear this dam things for 21 hours a day in order to be successful. The cost too is more than trad braces - mine were $4375 - I'm looking at 6 months for the top and year + on the bottom.
Good luck with what you decide. |
